Orchid station. The elevator arrives and Keamy gets out. D'oh! I guess they should have checked for a pulse. His only weapon is a small knife. He staggers in and calls out for Ben. But this time he reminds him that he's wearing a bulletproof vest, so Ben should really aim for the head. Keamy strips off his shirt. Thanks, show! He shows off the thing strapped to his arm. As pretty much everybody figured out, it's a dead-man's trigger. If Keamy's heart stops beating, the C-4 will explode, killing all kinds of innocent people on the boat. And then Locke walks up behind Keamy. He introduces himself and explains that he has no conflict with Keamy. He's trying to talk Keamy into putting down his knife so they can talk. Keamy doesn't really care to talk. And then Ben emerges from a locker, beans Keamy with a crowbar (or maybe his baton or a piece of rebar), and stabs him several times, while shouting about how Keamy killed his daughter. The dead-man's trigger starts beeping. Locke: "You just killed everybody on that boat." Ben: "So?" Commercials.
Beach. Daniel starts to tell Charlotte something about the boat, but she tells him that she's staying on the island. He explains that if she doesn't come now, she could be there forever. Charlotte: "Nothing's forever." Daniel asks her why she'd stay. Charlotte: "Would it make any sense if I told you I was still looking for where I was born?" Although that's perhaps the clearest thing she's ever said, Daniel tells her it makes no sense. She laughs, and kisses him on the cheek. She says goodbye, and walks away. Daniel walks over to the boat. He meets Juliet on the way, and has already realized that she's also not coming. She tells him that she's committed to staying until everyone else on the beach is safe on the boat. She promises that she'll still be there when he gets back. Daniel: "Right. When I get back." Daniel and six no-name Losties head out to the freighter.
Bomb room. Michael stops freezing the battery when Desmond explains that he thinks that if he cuts a particular wire, he'll be able to disarm the bomb. Jin, whose experience as a mob enforcer apparently taught him about bombs, realizes that Desmond is wrong and stops him before it's too late. And there's just a quarter tank of nitrogen left. Desmond asks what they're supposed to do if they can't disarm the bomb. Michael thinks they'll have to get everyone off the boat.
The chopper is soaring across the ocean when Frank realizes that the fuel gauge is going down pretty fast. Everyone sticks their heads out of the chopper, and they realize that a bullet pierced the fuel tank. Frank wants to go back, but Jack tells him to continue because there's no fuel on the island -- if they don't get to the boat, the chopper will be useless. So Frank tells them to dump everything loose off the chopper. Throw, throw, throw. Jack asks if they dumped enough. Frank: "I'd feel a hell of a lot better if were a few hundred pounds lighter." The camera zooms in on Hurley. As Jack and Frank continue to talk about how desperate their situation is, Sawyer looks thoughtful. He leans over to Kate and whispers something in her ear. She asks him, "Why are you telling me this?" He kisses her. He kisses the hell out of her. And then he says, "Just do it, Freckles." Sawyer jumps out of the chopper into the water. He surfaces and starts swimming toward the island. Commercials.
